Winning Player |

The 5th edition of Eurovision Song Contest - Fans Club Game was organised in Vatroslav Lisinski Concert Hall in Zagreb, Croatia, following the country's victory in 4th edition of the contest in Tbilisi with the song "Terca Na Tisinu" by Silente.
It was the first contest held by a Croatian broadcast. Just like in previous edition, the show consisted of three Semi-finals, Second Chance and the Grand Final. All of them were hosted by Jacques Houdek, and Nina Badrić, who represented her country in Eurovision Song Contest 2012.
The winner of the contest was Czech Republic with the song "Černý Anděl" by Gabriela Gunčíková, awarded with 195 points in total, breaking a previous record, that of Katie Melua and "The Flood", which was 167 points.
Format[]
The structure of the contest hasn't been changed; it remained the same since the previous edition: three Semi-finals, the Grand Final and Second Chance round in between.. Countries that participated, just like before, could come from both geographical and historical Europe, with only one special guest(in this edition - United States). Same voting system; each country had a set of points from 1-8, 10 and 12 to give. The songs chosen could be original, found and selected by players themselves, as well as the ones, which previously had taken part in Eurovision Song Contest. The running order random, after a randomization personally held by a creator of the contest.
Second Chance - Changes[]
A possibility of qualifying to the Grand Final through Second Chance had been decreased; only countries that finished 11th and 12th(first two non-qualifiers) in each Semi-final, could participate in Second Chance - that gave result of 6 countries participating and only 2 qualifying for the Grand Final.
